Well, the native build does go faster and it does compile everything 
pretty smoothly.  However, I'm back to having troubles with Python.  I 
guess I'll post more specific information this time.  Here's where 
Python appears to be locking up.

The C value is 62, so it is busy, but busy with what?  It has been going 
120 minutes.  I'm not sure if this is the native assembler, but I 
altered my path so that native would be the default if it exists.  
'/usr/ccs/bin/as' is sym linked from '/bin/as'.  I didn't have this 
problem with prefix-launcher-1.2.  At least I didn't notice it.  It did 
find the right compiler.

Thanks everyone for your patience with me and prompt replies.  You've 
all been a big help.
